Another project we have is for the elderly that started out as a way to help reduce loneliness among this population. It has morphed from our original plan and now is more focused on health, taking advantage of another health initiative that started last November. This project will be visiting family by family to do in-depth medical exams including blood samples. For many of the elderly in the region, this will be the first time they have had this through of an exam. This is just an example of how our different projects are interconnected; health with the wellbeing of the elderly. But we need your help to make this possible, so please keep supporting this work. Thanks, and remember, I love you Douglas
